Features

Design a custom shopping cart

Use a wizard to design your shopping cart in Dreamweaver with ease. Select from many design presets (now responsive!) and even save your own presets. Use the built-in Color Manager to easily change colors used in the cart or use the Color Suggestions for new ideas. You can even import an image or web page that you are inspired by.

Create traditional read-only and updateable carts - or create quick carts and email-friendly carts for other pages in your site. The updateable cart design includes quantity fields, making updating the cart user-friendly. The read-only cart can be used to simply display a purchase confirmation, where no additional modifications can be made from the cart. The quick cart design can display the status of the cart anywhere on your site. The email-friendly cart is designed with minimal styling, making it compatible with email clients.

Finally, you can even build a shopping cart that doesn't require online payment; just let customers shop and simply provide a quote or allow phone payment processing.

Build checkout pages

eCart creates all the necessary pages for your checkout process, in addition to your shopping cart. These include:

Customer checkout page

Order confirmation/review

Order success

Order failure

Order email receipt

The pages are generated, complete with labels, HTML5 form fields, CSS buttons and Jquery validation, all customizable directly from the Checkout Wizard.

The forms use CSS layouts so you can customize the design or even use your own Dreamweaver template. The modern checkout page updates automatically, using CSS3 transition effects as your customer enters their information and makes selections on the checkout page.

Create shipping and tax rules

eCart provides real-time shipping quotes from these world-class shipping services: DHL, UPS, USPS, FedEx, Canada Post and Australia Post. You can use multiple providers in combination and configure rules based on the shipping quotes. The easy rules interface also lets you configure custom tax rules. Use any of these rule triggers to create your own custom rules:

Total number of unique items in the cart

Number of items with a specific column value

Presence of an item in the cart or quantity of a specific item in the cart

Taxable total for the cart

Subtotal for the entire cart contents or for any column

If today is before or after a certain day

If session variable exists or a specific session variable value

Based on shipping quote value from any of the shipping providers

Custom Expression evaluates to true

Run discounts and promotions

Offering discounts on your website can increase conversion, but building such a system can be incredibly overwhelming. With eCart, it's easy. Configure promotions based on any of these rule triggers:

Total number of unique items in the cart

Number of items with a specific column value

Presence of an item in the cart or quantity of a specific item in the cart

Taxable total for the cart

Subtotal for the entire cart contents or for any column

If today is before or after a certain day

If session variable exists or a specific session variable value

Based on shipping quote value from any of the shipping providers

Custom Expression evaluates to true

Generate custom cart buttons

eCart will create your add to cart, view cart and update cart buttons. With the wizard, you can choose button presets and pick the language your buttons should be generated in:

Dutch

English

French

German

Italian

Spanish

Or you can specify your own custom buttons. If you want to use the add to cart, view cart and update cart functions without buttons, eCart offers server behaviors you can utilize to apply these functions.

No database experience required

You can choose to build a static or a dynamic cart with eCart. Static carts do not require your products to be database-driven.

If you want your cart database-driven, you can choose whether to have eCart automatically create the database tables for storing your order information. This will save you time and ensure that your database has everything needed.

Examples

New in Version 6

Upgrade to eCart 6 for these new and enhanced features:

Installation and uninstallation enhanced: Order of extension installation no longer matters and installation/uninstallation are quicker

Displays are all responsive now and optimize your shopping cart for smartphones and tablets, in addition to desktop displays.

Checkout wizard is now tab based, making set up of your checkout pages much more efficient (no longer a 12 step process!)

New interface for configuring checkout form persistence so that form and values can be carried through checkout. Options include none, session, cookie persistence.

If form persistence is used, form bindings are made available in the bindings panel - great for binding default values for form fields.

Style checkout form error validation with Jquery tooltips from the Checkout Wizard

If you own Data Bridge, you can use the Validation Tooltips wizard to customize the colors, transparency, borders, arrow, rounded corners, and placement of the tooltip error, then use any of your saved presets in the eCart Checkout Wizard.

Style buttons from the Checkout Wizard

If you own Data Bridge, you can use your CSS Button Styler to customize every aspect of the button design, including rounded corners, gradients, background images, shadows, fonts, borders, text alignment padding, margins, hover states and more, then use any of your saved presets in the eCart Checkout Wizard.

New server behaviors that allow you to securely pass session from one website to another through encryption and secure communication between 2 domains. These are useful in eCart if your checkout is on a secure server but your shopping cart is not.

How do I install eCart?

It’s easy as pie to install an extension in the Adobe Extension Manager, but we have a installation video that will make you a pro, even if you have never installed an extension.

Can I customize the code?

All HTML, CSS and PHP code that WebAssist extensions output is completely accessible for further modification and customization.

Can I use a payment gateway or shipping provider that is not listed?

eCart can be modified to tie into other payment gateways and shipping providers; however, you will need to be comfortable hand coding a connection to your desired third party as WebAssist only supports those listed.

How do I select a payment gateway?

What currencies are supported?

The eCart wizard allows you to select dollars, euros, pounds, francs, or yen from the default list - or you can specify your own symbol in the custom currency field.

What if I need further support?

First, visit the eCart support page to review the latest product documentation, tutorials and videos. If you still need help, visit our support forums, where we have over a decade of experience helping our customers be successful with our tools - for FREE!

System requirements

A web server that runs PHP 5.2 . If your computer is not already set up to be a web server, we have a tutorial that will assist you for both Windows and Mac users.

MySQL 4 or 5. Although building a static cart does not require a database to use eCart's add to cart buttons in your product catalog, a database is still required to store the details for your orders. Take advantage of our free eCommerce MySQL database if you don't already have a database.

Supported shipping providers

Unlimited websites with 1 license
